Bismillahi Rahmani Raheem:Insha'Allah [God willing], I had this idea to give away hijabs and abayas I don't need, and to help converts, and sisters who do not have the means to proper hijab. It will only work with the help other sisters. My idea: any clothes you or I do not need [hijabs, niqab, abaya] send [ideally] a picture of them [either from the website you ordered them from or from life]and/or a description [in the least] of the item, citing size, colour, what it is used for, a contact email, and your relative place in the world [i.e. your city and country] to the email posted below so that they can be listed on the website.

For example, I (my name will not be posted) have a pink turkish jilbab and matching square hijab. The jilbab would fit a girl or woman who is 4 foot 7-5 foot 1 and who is an American size zero-2. I live in Victoria, British Columbia Canada. I am willing to send it to anyone who lives in British Columbia, Canada, if they could use it. Please only apply if you have two or less jilbabs. [name not posted]

The items you would like to donate to help others sisters can be emailed (pics and descriptions of course) to: bm_pixie@hotmail.com(I will also try and get other sisters to help with this endeavor). Sisters interested in posted items can contact the same email address and I will alert the sister who posted the item for donation with the address she can send the item to. To apply for a posted item, you must supply an address for the item to be sent to. Make sense? Insha'Allah it will work. In hadith we are told, that if a sister does not have a jilbab she is to borrow the jilbab of her sister, soooooo, lets all be sharing!!!!!! Love you all for the sake of Allah S.W.T.
